Water Balloon Fight: FAIL!!

Growing up a little brown girl with unruly hair, you know early on that getting your hair under control is a labor of pain and burns. Many a Sunday I spent sitting in the kitchen in front of the stove while my mom wielded the pressing iron to get my frizzy curly ‘fro sleek and straight. Back then I watched alot of Charlie’s Angels and I wanted straight bouncy luxurious hair like Farrah Fawcett and Jacyln Smith. They just got out of bed with hair that looked amazing. But I had to endure hours of torture just to have it all put in pig tails fitting for a little girl.

As I got older and was allowed more “adult” styles, I wanted more. I wanted highlights. Oh great not only do I have hot iron heated in fire pulled through my hair, now I get to put on this tight cap with little holes and have my hair yanked through the holes with a small crochet hook. Highlights was something we did in the summer time. After you’ve endured all the torture to get get it dyed and straight, participating in summer activities without getting your hair wet became an art. You could hang out at the pool or on the beach but the hair must NEVER get wet. I’m telling you all this for a reason, just stay with me.

Sal and I had a little water ballon fight courtesy of Izzie’s Water Ballon Fight Poses. There are tons of poses and balloon props and water splashes, take my word on it. I decided to put on my new bikini from Blacklace, called Summer Splash. It comes in a wet top version and a dry top version,floral bottoms and as a bonus beach towel with animations (not shown). I also had to wear Truth’s new Kara style w/ roots in the Almond color, which is a new Truth color for me to wear. I just love the highlights. It reminds me so much of the Charlie’s Angel hair I wanted as a child.

So back on track, Sal and I… water balloon fight. It was all fun and games until Sal made the biggest mistake ever. He aimed for THE HAIR!!

OH HELL NO!! NOT THE HAIR!! Yes its SL its a wig, but 30 years of practice can not be undone in one virtual world incident!! Sal realized his error right away and tried to run. But I clonked him right in the back of the head. That should teach him.

Just when I thought we had an understanding, he let me have it. I’M A BATTERED WIFE!! I HAZ EVIDENCE!! SEE:
